What Perry is looking for in a school

In a previous interview with On3, Travis Perry shared what he’s wanting in a future college.

“The big thing for me will be the relationship I have with the coaching staff. It is one thing to go down to a school and have a great visit, but you have to go somewhere you are comfortable. These people are going to be like your second family for a couple of years. Also, I’ll look closely at how I fit on the basketball side. I’ve learned going to these camps all over that system is really big for a player like myself. Going into a system that plays the game the right way is big for me.

“I want to play for a coach who wants to compete and win. I know everyone wants to win, but some guys just really, really have to win. That is big for me also.”

Scouting Report

“Travis Perry is a heady lead guard who plays at a fast pace. He makes quick, decisive decisions on the ball. Perry has deep range on his jumper and he is able to find his balance and square his shoulders off the catch or off the bounce. He relies more on pace than he does quickness, he has average pop. Perry sees the floor well. There will be questions about his on ball defense, but he gives good effort on that end. A prolific scorer.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
